Arizona State has announced a home-and-home football series with Mississippi State for 2024 and 2025.

These will be the first football games between the two programs.

This agreement locks up all the open non-conference spots on ASU's football schedule through the 2026 season.

The ASU-MSU games will be played on Saturday, Sept. 7, 2024, at Sun Devil Stadium and on Saturday, Sept. 6, 2025, at Davis Wade Stadium in Starkville.

"This football agreement with Mississippi State University provides us with yet another strong future series with a Power 5 opponent, this one from the SEC," Vice President for University Athletics Ray Anderson said in a statement. "This series complements our future series with LSU, Michigan State, Oklahoma State, and BYU."

ASU is scheduled to host LSU in 2026 and visit LSU in 2029.

ASU is 0-5 in games played against teams in the SEC. (Note: ASU is 3-10 all-time against teams that are now in the SEC, but some of those games occurred before Arkansas and Missouri joined that conference).
